The rifle was sold to an unknown collector in San Francisco in 1994 for US$ 550,000


The rifle was baught at auction by Creig Martin, who was one of the hunters in the film,"IN THE BLOOD" and who brought the rifle along for the filming of Tysin Butler shooting a Cape Buffalo with it!

Better stalking (get closer), better glasses, and more practice shooting. Some of his shot counts mentioned in his book are very high, reloading the Springfield more than once.
